Abstract
A mobile robot is configured to move a main body and rotate a cleaning cloth by means of a motor to clean a surface. A location change of the main body is analyzed to determine a traveling state of the robot. The absence of the cleaning cloth is detected and the operation of the robot is controlled based on the detected travelling state. A user is notified about the absence of the cleaning cloth.
